Virvius Update (April 5th 2024)


Log - 04/05/24

Notes: First off, I want to thank the Boomer shooter community for testing Virvius, the game has improved greatly because of your input, Thank you! 

If you have purchased the game and haven't left a review it would greatly improve the games chances by leaving a review!
This update is the official purchasable early access build which now contains 24 achievements with an "Achievement" menu for in game.

Having said that, achievements are not included in the demo and only a few of them can actually be obtained in episode 1, as the achievements were designed for the full 4 episode game. Also, this build now includes a level select which is the "Vault" selection in the menu with and episode selection in the next with only episode 1 accessible. You can unlock levels as you play the game and revisit them if your scouting for achievements. 

I have also patched a few bugs, added a weapon select UI in the game and tweaked some of the weapons more. The Railgun got an overhaul and centered weapons should now function better. 

Virvius is now available to buy for $4.99USD! Its not much but, its 3 years of honest work with plenty of gameplay. 

Check out the demo first if you're feeling uncertain. Feel free to express any thoughts or concerns or any other game inquiries to this thread or Enfenyx Gaming - Virvius Discord Server.

 I would love to hear from you! --------> https://discord.gg/HSVPTCCs9E
